My last concert was 2009 in Reno, NV and it was quite a large venue. Totally enjoyed it but could not see the guys as they were so far away. Last night we were close enough to see their expressions and it was just a wonderful evening. Loved David's antics: tripping during My Way (one of my sisters gasped thinking he really tripped) and getting the audience to cheer and then cut us off with a wave of Simon's baton. He had us doing long cheers, short cheers, he was enjoying controlling us and the other guys were laughing. The guys sang their hearts out and the audience thanked them with several standing ovations some quite long. I think Adagio, Come What May and Senza Catene got the longest standing O's. I noticed Urs face at the end of one of them, he was so pleased. Seb was in great form giving his little comentaries, he's such a sweetie. When he started with the nursery rhymes, Urs got off his stool, said something to Carlos and went to the side of the stage, leaned in and was talking to someone. He then smiled and stood back in the darkness watching the audience. Soon after someone handed him a cup and he sipped it slowly and seemed to be clearing his throat. I'm assuming he had a sore throat. He went back to join the guys when it was time to sing and made his comment on Seb taking so long he had time for a coffee He later went back to finish his cup of tea or whatever it was. He stood there watching the crowd, I could see his eyes looking around. He noticed a nice looking woman who walked up the aisle toward him and when she turned and went to the stage exit door he leaned around to see where she went LOL I had thought he might not be feeling well because earlier he was talking about the incredible orchestra they had with them, he turned towards them with his arms outstretched and then he muttered something, and then silence for several seconds. So strange for Urs to forget what he was saying. He then kind of chuckled and said "This never happens to me, David maybe you better take over". I felt so bad for him, he seemed embarrased poor guy Carlos of course was his usual flirty self and had the ladies all aflutter

The guys were incredible, such beautiful voices they give me goosebumps

Unfortunately a couple of things detracted from the show. First of all the air conditioning was broken. On such a hot day it was awful. An usher told us they had people working on it all day. It finally seemed to kick in during the intermission. It was so very hot in the auditorium both David and Seb mentioned it. We were all sweating, people had fans and programs waving just to get a breeze. The other problem was a crazed little "camera police" woman in our section. She was just horrible! I had a new camera and only got a couple of shots (trying to figure out the settings) when my sister urgently told me to put my camera away. A few seats down from us this horrible little woman was playing tug-of-war with a lady's camera, telling her to put it away now or she would take it away. She then spent the entire 2+ hours running around poking people's shoulders and giving them little speeches. Every time she saw a flash in our area, she'd run to confront the person. I noticed that the rest of the auditorium had camera flashes going and no one was bothering them. We were sitting in the front row of the second section on the main floor and she was such a distraction running back and forth right in front of us - we wanted to trip her

All in all it was a wonderful night, totally enjoyed it. Got to talk with several other fans, two ladies from Australia, two other ladies who had been to the meet and greet and another lady and her friend who it turns out went to the same high school as me. Small world!
